I Huskies set to avenge rival loss
By Cliff Pfenning
Emerald Contributor
Grudge match time.
Oregon vs Washington. Brag
ging rights to the entire north
west at stake. Respect for Ore
gon football waiting in the
wings.
The game is the biggest event
of the year. Face it. it's the big
_Commentary
gest game of every year, at least
in the valley. The Oregon
Washington rivalry has been
fairly heated for many years,
but that friction is amplified
whenever the Ducks beat the
Huskies. It’s amplified this
year.
Three-hundred students
(with 30,000 fee cards) lined up
for tickets on Monday, long be
fore the office opened. Every
one hoping for a victory.
But if Washington wins, it’ll
be back to the same old scene.
Washington saves face, tradi
tion restored for another year.
Oregon wishing the loss was in
Washington, because whatever
the rivalry is down here, it isn’t
the same up north.
The Huskies don't respect
Oregon at all. Chris Chandler,
Washington quarterback last
season, said the Ducks' 29-22
victory was an embarrassing
loss. Cary Conklin, quarterback
this season, told reporters Sat
urday that. “We owe them
one.” The Ducks have been of
fering similar quotes about the
game also.
Washington's schedule is al
ways choked full of interesting
games with big name schools
like Ohio State, Texas A&M,
Brigham Young, and so on. But
they don’t call those "pay day"
games. Sure they make money,
but mainly they expect to win,
win, win. Losing is a disgrace,
especially to Oregon, a team
they're supposed to own —
have in their hip pocket.
After all, Washington has
been to a bowl game the last
nine years in a row compared
with Oregon's 24 years in a row
missing post season.
The Huskies play to huge
sellouts in Seattle, which has
Hoeing, the Space Needle, the
Seahnwks, and more than a
million people. The Ducks play
in Eugene, hippy town; two
hours away from Portland. The
Ducks got that sucker punch in
last year, and the swelling just
won't go away. Not without a
Washington victory.
Even the Seattle writers lend
a hand in condemning Oregon.
John Owen, a sports columnist
for the Seattle Post-Intelligenc
er. reviewed the Pac-10 for an
Athlon Publications magazine
before the season began, and
where do you think he put the
Ducks? Dead last, behind Ore
gon State and Washington Stat
e. Those teams get lucky once
in a while too. Hut then the
Huskies get mad and clean up
the next year, keeping Seattle
